The only "straightish" punch, and the only punch I see him being effective with is his uppercuts. Thats his bread and butter, and thats the best punch he can land.
ALso who has Margarito foughten, and beaten besides Clottey(who was beating him before he broke his hand)? Kermit Cintron? AM has proven less in the boxing world than Mayweather has proven in the MMA world. Regardless everything that he does that gives Cotto problems will not give Oscar problems, Oscar is taller, faster than Cotto, and he is far too slick, fast, skilled for a guy like Margarito to beat him, just look at Mayorga for evidence. This type of fighter isn't a challenge for Oscar.
